As per reports, the dog’s 22-year-old female owner jumped off the bridge on Sunday night (July 16) leaving behind her slippers. Her dog waited for her for hours and even slept there hoping that she will come and take him.
Heartbreaking visuals of the pet dog near its owner’s footwear went viral on social media.
According to the reports, the woman jumped into the river from GMC Balayogi Bridge between Yanam and Yedurlanka on Sunday evening. The incident occurred when a large number of visitors thronged the area to enjoy the sunset.
The woman was walking with her dog and suddenly jumped into the river. After passersby raised an alarm, fishermen in a boat tried to save her but she was washed away by a strong current.
It was a shocking moment for the people and heartbreaking for the poor animal who moved frantically along the bridge, looking down at the river. It came back to sit near the footwear of its owner and waited throughout the night and slept there. And, on Monday morning, it finally left with the mother of the woman.
The woman has been identified as Mandangi Kanchana (22), a resident of Yanam Ferry Road. The Yanam Police said they are investigating the reason for the suicide.
Yanam is an enclave of the union territory of Puducherry within Andhra Pradesh.
Coming to dogs, they can feel our moods and absence and display extraordinary feelings when we are not around.
